Translate matlab to python/numpy

Question

I am looking for an automatic code translator for Matlab to Python. I downloaded and installed LiberMate but it is not documented anywhere and I wasn't able to make it work.

Has anybody dealt with this kind of challenge before? Any advice welcome.

I've done it manually. Check this.

[EDIT]

You can also try to call your MATLAB code from Python using Mlabwrap, a high-level Python to MATLAB bridge that lets MATLAB look like a normal Python library.

For example:

from mlabwrap import mlab
mlab.plot([1,2,3], '-o')

yes, i know this page. Thanks but when you have thousands of lines to convert, it takes too much time. – Mermoz Sep 17 '10 at 11:22

i seems there is no other way than to do the translation manually. I suggest you have these pages in your browser meanwhile:

and: Link with: http://mathesaurus.sourceforge.net/matlab-numpy.html

Install PyClips

wget http://sourceforge.net/projects/pyclips/files/pyclips/pyclips-1.0/pyclips-1.0.7.348.tar.gz/download
tar zxvf download
cd pyclips
./setup.py install

libreMate

cd /path/to/libermate-0.4
./libermate.py /path/to/matlabfile.m

This works for me :-)
